March 26, 20214 yr I am numb to this team as is so this move does not matter to my outlook for 2021 one bit. The more picks the better, regardless who is GM. Also this team is not one player away and recent drafts have not yielded much young talent to build around. Not upset about having an extra 1st next season. Really, given a choice, I'd keep trading down for A.) cheaper 2021 draft slotted contracts B.) youth infusion C.) future picks

Not exactly hating it Chase could go 3 to Miami and Pitts could go 4 to Atlanta. So, if you look at it that way, I don't see how people can hate the trade unless it doesn't go that way. But, there are reports that Miami likes Chase at 3 and Atlanta likes Pitts at 4.

Miami doesnt have the third pick... Its okay a lot has happened in the last 10 minutes
March 26, 20214 yr I didn't like this year's draft. We need a beast gamechanging edge rusher more than anything and this year it didn't look like there was any worth a 6 So I was in Team Trade Back. I still wish we got more value out of this trade down, though. If the Dolphins pick isn't top 10 in the next years draft this is a loss. And the pick tradeup didn't even get us to the top 100 either

We can't keep effing up on these early round picks. That's a surefire way to set you back several years. Agree, being at #6 i thought there would be enough high ceiling players it would be harder to screw up..but now..
March 26, 20214 yr Just now, QBhunter58 said: Miami doesnt have the third pick... Its okay a lot has happened in the last 10 minutes Okay, I missed the 49ers news. Okay, now I get why a few people are upset because 49ers will most likely go QB there. So, Chase will be there at 6. I think the writing was on the wall that the Eagles weren't going to draft Chase when they were supposedly interested in Juju. There's no way they were going to sign both Juju and draft Chase after just drafting Reagor. The Eagles don't want Chase for whatever reason.

March 26, 20214 yr I like it. We have such an old, awful roster, we need as many picks as we can get over the next few years.

March 26, 20214 yr we have a ton of holes and 2 good TEs (for now), this is the best thing long term for us, especially with our wonky cap. I wouldn't be opposed to dropping down again to the late 1st, picking up another day 2 pick this year and maybe a day 2 next year.

So, if you look at it that way, I don't see how people can hate the trade unless it doesn't go that way. But, there are reports that Miami likes Chase at 3 and Atlanta likes Pitts at 4. I think we mostly hate it because Howie can’t draft, so the likely the takes someone at 12 who turns out to be a stud is diminished severely from the chances he get lucky at 6. He went from "even Howie can’t screw up 6” to "he’ll more than likely screw this up.” Now you’re going to see him reach for a guy that will probably be there when we lock in the second round because he sees 12 the same way he sees 37.
March 26, 20214 yr 11 minutes ago, Procus said: Pitts, Chase - both generational talents. Have to disagree with you there. Yeah I’ll pass on taking a receiver at 6. Most of the top 10 receivers currently playing were drafting late first or second. A good top 6 pick for me is a player that takes over the game himself, not one that relies on a QB.
March 26, 20214 yr 1 minute ago, CaliEagle said: Stacking up for a possible QB, if Hurts doesn't pan out...unless Howie goes Mac Jones at 12. Anything is possible. Exactly, rumors surfacing Eagles tried to trade up to 3 for Zach Wilson but it didn't work out. Hurts has this year to prove something than its a big trade up next season if needed.

March 26, 20214 yr This is an idiot trade. They were guaranteed either Chase or Pitts. Not now. Lurie keepimng Hpowie aroiund is a joke.

March 26, 20214 yr i like the move , with the 12 pick i see them going CB jacee horn , 3 first rounders next year and a 4th this year we didn't have

And passing weapons are the last piece to a roster. Dont do you a lot of good with a broken O-line, sub-50% QB, and inexperienced coaching staff Get both lines in order, build that defense, make sure you have the right QB, then you can start thinking about elite weapons. They're frosting on the cake, not the foundation
March 26, 20214 yr 2 minutes ago, CheesesteakNBeer said: Potentially 3. True, from the Wentz trade. I think either Wentz leads the Colts to the playoffs, meeting benchmarks so the Eagles get a pick after #20. Or if the Colts fail to make the playoffs, the Colts sit Wentz and it's a 2nd round pick.
March 26, 20214 yr Wow, that is wonderful news!! Love it! We get that extra first next year and only trade back 6 spots! I am celebrating.
March 26, 20214 yr 1 minute ago, EagleJoe8 said: I guess I don’t hate it. Me neither. I just don't trust Howie. They nearly couldn't go wrong at 6 but now they easily can. Wait and see mode now.
